Good morning lovely knitters! It is nice to see a non-stormy day ahead of us! It might be a perfect day to take a ride and come see some NEW yarn!! :)

Earlier this week, I dyed up more Doll Face Kraken! So, if you still have yet to get your paws on it, come in today before this batch is gone!

I also rearranged out wall of hand-dye to make space for Kraken and Twisty - you'll want to come in just for a drool, at the very least!

We also got new colors of delicious and delightful Amitola Grande!

There are NEW Grey+ Mad Balls - this is quickly becoming one of my favorite batches- silvery greys with just a POP of colorful yarn here and there.

Aja and I recorded our first podcast yesterday and it will be ready for you on Monday. It was pretty fun - which is a shock because I'm a little deer-in-the-headlights when a camera is on! But check it out! We'll alert you on Instagram and FB when its live!

Also - time is starting to run short on our featured pattern - Ropes and Rivers! Get this gorgeous and fun pattern free through August when you purchase Kraken or Blackwater.

And don't forget to check your calendar and sign-up for the upcoming classes. A couple are starting to fill up fast - we have limited space in the shop, so don't wait too long!

I hope to see all of you today! :)
